Abstract

The impact of disasters is considered more concerning for elementary school-age children, as they are unable to rescue themselves at such a young age. It is highly meaningful for elementary school-age children to have an understanding of disaster mitigation. This study aims to determine the knowledge of school children regarding the mitigation of Mount Kelud's disaster in a highly prone disaster zone. The research method used is descriptive quantitative with a population of 112 students and a sample size of 60 respondents selected through purposive sampling. Data collection was done using a questionnaire consisting of 15 questions that were validated, with a calculated value of r > r table, which is 0.602, and the reliability test result of Cronbach's alpha greater than 0.600. This research was conducted in March 2023 at SDN 02 Penataran. The research results show that the respondents' knowledge of disaster mitigation is 33.3% categorized as good, 45% as sufficient, and 21.6% as lacking. Meanwhile, knowledge in the pre-disaster phase is 31.6% good, 46.7% sufficient, and 21.6% lacking. Knowledge during a disaster is 33.3% good, 48.3% sufficient, and 18.3% lacking, while knowledge after a disaster is 26.6% good, 31.6% sufficient, and 41.6% lacking. It can be concluded that the majority of knowledge regarding disaster mitigation falls under the sufficient category, accounting for 45% with an age range of 10-13 years, and children obtain information about disaster mitigation from their families and social media. It is recommended that educational institutions incorporate disaster mitigation learning into the school curriculum to deepen students' understanding of this matter

Abstract

Stunting is one of the nutritional problems that the government focuses on because it risks disrupting child development. This study aims to the development of stunted children aged 2-5 years at the Sukorejo Community Health Centre in Blitar City. The research method used is descriptive quantitative with a population of 91 stunted children aged 2-5 years taken by purposive sampling technique conducted on 25 March to 20 April 2024 with the DDST (Denver Development Screening Test) sheet instrument with normal interpretation if there is only 1 caution on the age line, abnormal if there are 2 or more cautions on the age line, Suspect if there are more than 2 cautions or more than 1 delay. Based on the results of the analysis of the overall development of stunted children aged 2-5 years, 75 children (82%) were normal, 7 children (8%) were abnormal, and 9 children (10%) were suspect. The conclusion in this study is that most children show normal development because parents provide regular stimulus, although there are a number of children who have delays due to lack of stimulus from parents. This study provides insight for researchers, educational institutions, health centres, and parents to increase attention to the development of stunted children.

The overall ability of mothers in providing first aid 90.3% (n=28) had less ability, 9.7% (n=3) of respondents had sufficient ability. The conclusion of this study is that almost all respondents get less ability due to lack of information about first aid, low education level and belief in using traditional methods. Therefore, it is necessary to educate health workers (Nurses) to mothers in order to improve the ability of mothers, so as to minimize more severe complications from the occurrence of wounds.
